Pinspired Pink + Red

I'm back again with another "pinspired" outfit. This one is a look that would be great for Valentine's Day and all other days. I love pink and red together! Atlantic Pacific rocked a fabulous outfit 2 years ago that cost over $700. I shopped my closet and snatched her fabulous style with thrift finds under $20.

My Valentine's Day will probably not involve going out on the town. Read all about it in Wednesday's post. That doesn't mean I don't love an opportunity to wear pink and red together. It's one of my favorite color combinations. Word on the fashion street is that they don't belong together. Oh well.

This year's V Day version includes a pink Gap sweater that is so thick and plush. As with most of my Gap sweaters, I am wearing this mug out. It's so yummy and cozy. The vibrant color makes it a good Valentine's Day choice.

The skirt is my one and only red skirt. It's not one of those colors that I'm naturally drawn to like orange or purple. I do love this one though. The front split is my favorite detail and the reason why I thrifted it. It's sexy without really showing anything unless there's a wind gust then you get a sliver of thigh.

I adore bronze colored leather so I couldn't pass on the clutch bag during my last thrift trip. I already have a similar one in my closet. Same brand. It's a collection. *whispers that's what I tell myself to not sound like a hoarder*

Do you wear pink and red together?

My heart shaped massage bars recipe is on Pinterest. I'll try to put together a step by step tutorial next week. If you're doing some pre-Valentine's Day prep work this weekend, it's over there. They're super delicious on the skin.
